I wonder if pieces similar to those of the Kidneys could be fit "below" and how that treatment would look. Maybe I'll gin something up using Photoshop if I get the chance.

For me, no, it looks bad mmkay :thumbsdown: - Perhaps it would look good if the grille from the Sport model was used? Pic attached.

If you wanted that look you could have saved yourself about 30k and bought a Pontiac.

Nah, not for me. Even if it was just the lower air inlet I wouldn't do it. Especially on the stock bumper.
On the Hamann aftermarket bumper, it looks more appropriate (I like it in that application), but still wish they kept the slats for the kidney grill.
